Haha, very true.
Thanks for the advice, I think I'm going to finish piecing the last few blocks, and then wash my quilt tops as gently as possible and hope for the best. Good point about the antihistamine - I do take Claritin each night to deal with the stuff I can't control around me. But considering I usually quilt at night around the same time my 24 hour dose is wearing off, I think I'll try taking it earlier in the afternoon/evening to see if it helps.
And from now on, I will be pre-washing ALL my fabric.
I appreciate the fast and helpful response!
